I'm new to drones, and I was curious how people decide where to fly their drones, and what to film. I've done the obligatory neighborhood flights, and I even went out to a remote spot in the desert to fly and film around. But now I find myself wondering, where to fly next? What would make an interesting video?
Now granted, I live in Phoenix, and there are hundreds if not thousands of great scenic places to fly and film at, but it's Phoenix. And the day time temperature averages around 115 F or so, and this year the humidity is atrocious, so being outside for any length of time is not all that pleasant. Plus the unbearable beating of the sun upon you, and the really, really bad glare of the tablet.
I'm not really a hiker, plus again, do I need to mention the weather?
So I'm curious about other peoples thought processes when they want to go film something. How do you determine where to fly, and what to film? I know this is going to mostly subjective, and everybody has their own preferences and tastes. But I thought maybe some of the people who've been doing this for a while might want to share some of their thoughts.
